    My first crash, what happend? Help please

    Lots of DJI drones still in the air and flying well after the warranty has expired. Typically in this forum we hear about the problems and issues that one experiences and if you compare that to the total number of DJI drones currently being flown it is a very , very small percentage. I am...

    My sister lives in West Hills , Ca and I pass that large rock structure when I visit her coming off the freeway. Never knew that there was a railroad that ran through that park. Thanks for sharing.

    It's this illegal?

    Where is the reply to the email? As far as I can tell the only rule he broke was potentially flying beyond VLOS . No restrictions as far as GeoMapping. Few cars. No visible crowds of people that he flew over. Flew up next to buildings within 400 feet from the top of the buildings. He may...

    First long exposure night shots. M2Z

    Those are actually Long Exposure shots and not Time Lapse . Time Lapses and Hyper Lapse are video based. The one on the bottom is the better of the two.

    Camping this last season on a dry lake bed near Yerrington, NV/ Fort Churchill . It was a rough drive to get out to the lake bed as its about 3 miles on an unpaved road. Just took it slow pulling the travel trailer. There was nobody besides our friends camping out there. Great to explore ...

    DJI GO4 android

    Yes . One must connect the external charger afterwards and not before. I ran into the same issue with unpredictable behavior while also hovering.

    Drone ordinance lawsuit (part 2) updated with video

    I think it means you CAN fly in the area free of reproach from law enforcement during the hours of 9a.m. - 1p.m on the 28th of November. So thats a Thanksgiving offering? :) I guess it is one small step towards stopping all enforcement in the area by local authorities. @Lapeer20m So please that...

    DJI GO4 android

    You can also modify your Micro USB Cable and snip the black wire. Now be aware that the USB Cable must be a DATA and Power Cable and not just a Power cable. There are actually different style cables. One type provides power , but no data and the other type provides both power and data. You need...

    DJI GO4 android

    You can always plug in a power bank to the upper Micro USB port on the Mavic Remote Controller. You must do this AFTER DJIGO4 has connected to the device that you are using to fly (using the lower Full Size USB Connector on the bottom of the Remote Controller) This will stop the remote from...

    Thought I was gonna lose my drone for a moment there!

    Try and fly out against the wind so that when you turn around and fly back the wind is now at your tail and helping push the drone back. Some hard core flyers will bring a small anemometer with them to determine wind speed and direction.

    Thought I was gonna lose my drone for a moment there!

    Become overly familiar with the DJIGO4 radar display so that you will always know the orientation of the drone relative to the home point. If you think you are pointed towards the home point and are actually pointed away you will fly away from yourself thinking you are getting closer only to...

    Calif. tourist fined $20K for out-of-control drone that landed at airport in Las Vegas flight in 2018

    A fine levied that is unpaid is just that. Irresponsible pilot is expected to pay fines on time or at all? You cannot get blood from a turnip. If they garnish wages that would be a way to force payment though.
